Wow. This is wild. The dude wanted to install a printer driver and everyone has him apt-getting gcc. BLAG comes with the printer drivers for that printer, so even the "tar" step isn't needed. Go to: Menu->System Tools->Print Manager And add it from there. You'll be able to pick Lexmark and your printer under there.

BLAG comes with gnomemeeting, which is a netmeeting compatible video conferncing program. If gnomemeeting wasn't installed when you did your initial install, you can download and and install it like this (run as root from command line): apt-get update apt-get install gnomemeeting It will then be in the "Internet" menu item as "Video Conferencing" You can also update your BLAG system by running: apt-get update apt-get dist-upgrade This will sync you with the current release, 9002. (BLAG uses both RPM and apt by the way)

You can get Open Office 1.0 for BLAG thusly (from command line as root): apt-get update apt-get apt (this will get most recent version of apt) apt-get update (to get the new list of "extras"). apt-get install openoffice (this will download and install openoffice, openoffice-i18n, openoffice-libs)
